El Viñedo De La Vida

Viña Errazuriz

Viñedo Chadwick Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2004

Vintage 2004 | popped and poured, perhaps it needs more aeration, the nose seems too old, a bit stinky. The taste is 100% correct and very compelling. Paired with filet. — 2 months ago

Biografico Tempranillo 2020

Nose of baby diapers and band aids. And I like it!! Deep purple with a lot of funkiness. Lightly tannic. Would like a bit more fruit, but still like it. — 3 years ago

I’m not a Tempranillo fan generally. But it’s not as bad as Malbec at least.

Bajo Velo White Blend

Pretty wild, like sherry, honey mead-y over fermented sweetness with orange citrus notes and a lighter finish. Fascinating!

TIL it tastes like sherry because it shares a technique, aging "under flor" which is a layer of yeast that forms in the top of the barrel where a bit of air is purposefully allowed in, that oxidative exposure is responsible for the intense umami, sherry-like flavors
